Some tidbits:
In addition to buying over 100 nuke power plants in the next quarter century, China and India will be firing up a new coal-fired power plant, on average, once a week. That's 1,300 in 25 years.
Persian Gulf states are planning significant coal imports, because coal generates much cheaper electricity than oil or gas
And how about this finger-in-the-face to Al Gore:No serious student of global politics can accept the notion that the world will soon join ranks behind Brussels, Washington and the gloomy computer and its minders. Dar is surely right when he says, "The U.S. and Japan will not tell Asia and Africa to choose poverty, disease, hunger and illiteracy over electricity." Europe might, but nobody will listen. It won't have moral authority until its own citizens are emitting less carbon than Bangladeshis. That won't happen soon.
Looks like the adults are starting to regain control.
